21 and decides to see Anna. When she sees Anna, Anna asks her to stay with her, but
Sara says that Kate is sick. Anna pulls away and says “But I‟m in the hospital”. Despite staying with Anna, Sara decides to look for a nurse to give more shots so
Anna cannot feel the pains after the surgery. pp. 232-233. Therefore, based on the quotation it states how her parents do not really care with
Anna. It shows from the situation in hospital when Anna does the bone narrow surgery. It does not seem fair for Anna. Both Anna and Kate are in hospital, but her
mom still chooses to be with Kate and says that she is little bit busy.
c. Wanting to help her sister
The third motive is Anna wants to help her sister. If we see this motive in
hierarchy of needs by Maslow, this motive is included in attachment needs. Attachment need is a need of belonging, need to affiliate with others, to love and to
be loved as cited in Gerric Zimbardo, 2008. The real reason why she wants to sue her parents is not only because she wants the right to control her own body. The other
reason is to help her sister because her sister does not want to do other operation or transplantation. She wants her parents to let her go, Kate wants to die. Anna agrees to
sue her parents not only because she wants the medical emancipation of her body, but also to help her sister. She shows her love to her sister. She will do anything to her
even it can make her parents are sad. The proof is in the courtroom, Anna decides to tell the truth in front of the
people. She says that the real reason that she wants to sue her parents is for helping PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
22 her sister. Kate wants Anna stop helping her to do the transplantatio n. She asks her to
stop doing that. Kate says that this is the time for her to go pp.388-391. Therefore based on the sentences above it shows that Anna is a caring perso n.
She shows how much she loves her. She decides to sue her parents is not only for herself, but also for her sister. She knows that her sister already tired and she wants
her parents to let her go.
The other proof shows when Anna reminds the time when her parents just came into their bedroom talked about donating a kidney. Anna says that she wants to do it
but, Kate disallows Anna to do it and says “Don‟t do it” p. 389. Kate answers show that she does not want her sister to help her anymore. Kate thinks this is the right time
for Anna to stop help her anymore. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
